One Day, 24 Hours

That's how much time I get to be a real person, not a graduate student. I am going to LA tomorrow with no books, not even my reading glasses! I am going to be KD before graduate school. I am staying with April and my good friend Rebecca will be there, both of whom knew me as an actual person. First as as the girl in the hat at freshmen orientation, then as an undergrad, then as a technical writer, and then as the dreaded graduate student.
And hopefully when I drive out of town, I can leave all my graduate school worries behind. No papers to grade or to write, no books upon books to read, no presentations to rehearse, no professors giving me a hard time about sentence syntax and bibliographies.

This should probably tell me I need more balance in my life but it will just have to wait until the quarter is over.
